Urasawa

There is a particularly high-end Japanese restaurant in Los Angeles, the name of this restaurant is "Urasawa". Their environment is really very elegant, and even has some Chinese feel.

Is the fish fresh? Yep. Can you get varieties here that are not widely available? Sure can. Is the A5 Waygu tasty? Indeed. Are there hundreds of restaurants around the world with more inventive food that is tastier and served in a better environment? Absolutely. Urasawa, like the Ginza Sushi-Ko before it (now Masa''s in NYC Columbus Circle) is great Japanese. But great Japanese is roughly the equivalent of 1 Michelin star French at 10x the price. So, if you want to go, don''t whine about the cost - enjoy the experience once or don''t bother.
